We welcomed Gina and John from the City of Melbourne Parks & Recreation Department, whom we proudly sponsor through the Adopt-A-Park program. Following their visit, we held a park cleanup the very next week—great to turn support into action!
Troy Adams from AMIkids Space Coast shared how their program has evolved and thanked us for our continued support. They’re currently working on reconstructing their dorms into private rooms, an important step forward for the youth they serve.

Providence Place shared how local organizations are coming together to better support those experiencing homelessness. Following the closure of the Daily Bread soup kitchen in downtown Melbourne, they are working toward a more holistic and sustainable approach.
Finally, our own Mary McIntyre, President of Rolling Readers, received our support and shared a powerful message about literacy.
